Kernel failure using traffic generator

Tue Aug 14, 2018 4:57 pm

Hi have just tried using the traffic generator on my Metal 5SHPn running ROS 6.42.6 and after clicking "start", I lost connection and noticed the device restarted with kernel failure.

The traffic generator is a kernel module coded by Mikrotik. It likely has some bugs, and bugs in the kernel mean a complete crash. I would advise against using it outside of test environments.
